Has anyone used Cimzia and Simponi Aria as a combo? I use methotrexate and it's not working.
I’m about to start shots of Cimzia next week. Has anyone experienced side effects. If yes, pls elaborate. Thx.
The problem is my back and neck and right foot. Really bad pins and needles in the foot which I think is related to my sugar levels. I had my first shot this past Weds. was told it could take 2 months… read more
I was diagnosed with 'non radiographic' AS (although it's questionable about the NR b/c my doctor saw inflammation on the MRI, brought it to the attention of the radiologist who then agreed) and started with taking Piroxicam at night. Initially and for the first time in my life I woke up in the morning without pain. I then was prescribed Cimzea (the medication for NR AS).

I was wondering how anyone has done while on Remicade? This would be my last try on a TNF inhibitor because if it doesn't give the relief needed then my Dr. would like to… read more

I am on my second biologic. I have tried Humira and 6 most later my body attacked the meds. I am now on Cosetyx. It's been about 8 weeks and I still feel so fatigued. I was thinking depression and is it still this disease?
Adacio made me depressed. Just started on Benepali (Etanercept) and really fatigued. Very dizzy too. The unknown is a scary place!
